Barragem de Santa Clara

Nice, large hotel suited for families and golfers. Room was nice and spacious with double sink bathroom. Staff were really helpful which was nice, especially finding our room which was one of the villas outside. Breakfast was ok but appreciated they have labels to show allergens, although disappointed that they paired the bread with the bacon. I’m gluten free and unfortunately both sections of bacon had bread underneath which seemed a bit ridiculous because there is a whole bread/pastry section.

There was a spa aheated pool,jacuzzi sauna you had to book a hour slot and it was with upto 8 other guests unfortunately at our slot it was a single man just staring at what we were doing so not very relaxing!At evening meals you had to purchase water if you wanted adrink.in our room a bottle of water was provided every day, A/C was broken nothing was said untill we said we were too hot then a fan was provided.also the tap only trickled out if was on hot some of furniture alittle tired looking,but pillows& bed very comfortable.Evening meal was buffet not much choice but always a fish/ meat dish not great for veggies but fresh salad available every night at this resort i think I might of preferred a beachfront hotel.

The apartments are so well equipped including dishwasher, washing machine, dryer and cooking facilities. The public areas are well maintained and the staff are friendly and helpful.
